If I saw you...

...in a store or on the street, how would I recognize you?  What's your typical style/"uniform"?

Re: If I saw you...

  • Jeans and a knit top are my typical uniform.

  • I'd most likely be wearing Uggs or rainboots; a tan coat or a black fleece.  My hair would probably be in a low bun (I suck at daylight savings; I have yet to wake up on a weekday and actually wash/style my hair).  I'd be carrying a huge black bag/purse and most likely look like a maniac walking fast/looking rushed.
  • Definitely wearing yoga/lounge style pants with a long sleeve t-shirt if it's cold, and a short sleeve t-shirt if it's warm.  That's pretty much what I wear all week when I work from home / weekend.  My hair and make up are always done, though.  So I don't look like a total slob :)

    When I go to the office, I wear jeans and a nicer (but not too nice) shirt. 

    Either way, I always look like I'm in a rush, and look annoyed that everyone around me is moving so slow.

  • During the week; dress, tights, boots/heels or blouse, slacks, heels

    Weekends; sweater, jeans tucked in boots or sweatshirt, yoga pants, red nikes

    ETA: Hair and make-up always done during the week.  Weekends, make-up is done lightly (unless we're going out) and hair is usually done wild now that it's short

  • During the week I'd be in black dress pants, heels or dress shoes, and a nice top.  My makeup gets done every morning Monday-Friday but sometimes I don't feel like straightening my hair, so usually it's pulled back in a pony tail or I put a little mousse in it and it stays wavy.  During the weekend, typically I stay in my pajamas or stretchy pants with one of Jason's big tshirts, unless we're going out and doing something, then I'm just in comfy pants, flip flops (no matter how cold it gets) and a comfy shirt or a zip up hoodie with a cami under it.

  • Jeans, tennis shoes, and a sweatshirt of sorts. Unless I'm coming from work, then a little more dressy. According to my sil (I love her...Confused) I dress like someone's mom.
  • If it is after or during work, black utilitarian style cargo pants and a hunter green short or long sleeved polo and black nikes, hair done but prob no make-up, I am lazy in the mornings.

    On my days off yoga pants and a t-shirt with either flip-flops or my ugg slip-in's.

    I sound like a lazy bum!

    This is me too, get out of my way!!!!

    On work days I am dressed nicer: sweater or blouse and dress pants in warmer weather, a skirt. 

    On weekends it is jeans and a sweater or a t-shirt.  I feel like I should dress a little nicer sometimes, but I dress up every day for work.  Usually my hair is down or mostly down, but the past couple of weeks I've been sporting a ponytail or bun so I can get out of the house faster in the morning.

    In cold weather you can recognize me by my pink coat I've been sporting the last two winters.  I need to get a new one, but I love this one.  I never thought a coat I got at Target for $20 would last so long!!!  I also tend to wear my hair curly on weekends instead of straightening it like I do during the week.

  • Fun!

    For one thing, I'll be rooting around inside my purse for either my work phone or my personal cell phone, and probably dropping my Kindle at the same time. I'm such a klutz.

    If I'm not going on sales calls for work (selling biology models to biotechs/pharma/universities), I'll be in jeans and a knit top of some sort, and probably a tailored fleece jacket because I'm always cold. If I'm out for work it's tailored slacks or skirt, button-down or tailored sweater, and heels.

    Haha!  Living in Texas makes being this way especially difficult.  We kind of live in the suburbs of the suburbs, and everyone moves reallllllllyyyyyy slow here.  Waiting for someone to cross the crosswalk at the grocery store is one of the most dreadful things I experience each week (not to mention the people who go through self checkout with a full cart, including produce, when I just have 3 or 4 items!).

  • Depends on the day and the season...I'm a layers girl....cami, tshirt, cardigan over whatever i have on....even in the summer....

    work aka today i have on wide leg black khaki's, cute 1in wedge heels, a grey cami, burgandy tshirt and a turquoise cardi. Always have makeup on now, always have jewlery on

    weekends its jeans, and either the same weekday top combo or i've taken to wearing tunic dresses over my jeans and cardigans....

    i'm not a sweatpants in public girl....last weekend i did it because i was driving to my mom's to clean and had to go pick up my transfered pair of shoes from dsw and my friends work there so i didnt care...unfortunately my mom at an early age imposed her "bigger women need to look perfect all the time" mantra on me and its stuck unfortunately....since college jeans and a sweatshirt makes me uncomfortable...thanks mom....really...thanks.... *eyeroll*
